The resistivity as function of temperature of high temperature superconductors is very unusual and despite its importance lacks an unified theoretical explanation. It is linear with the temperature for overdoped compounds but it falls more…
Compelling evidence exists for electronic phase separation in cuprate high-$T_c$ superconductors, emerging near 1/8 hole doping. At these dopings and low temperatures, intertwined charge and spin stripes coexist with more uniformly doped…
We show that a variety of spectral features in high-T_c cuprates can be understood from the coupling of charge carriers to some kind of dynamical order which we exemplify in terms of fluctuating charge and spin density waves. Two…
There is a consensus that superconductivity (SC) in cuprates is two-dimensional. It is widely believed that the long-range phase coherence appears at T_{c} due to the Josephson coupling between SC CuO_{2} (bi-, tri-, >...)layers. Recent…

We briefly review a theory for the cuprates that has been recently proposed based on the movement and interaction of holes in antiferromagnetic (AF) backgrounds. A robust peak in the hole density of states (DOS) is crucial to produce a…
We study cross-flavor Cooper pairing in a relativistic system of two fermion species with mismatched Fermi surfaces. We find that there exist gapless phases which are characterized by either one or two gapless nodes in the energy spectra of…
I present a selection of experimental results on metallic cuprates, both above the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ (often called the strange metal state) and in the superconducting state. It highlights this still poorly…
